The Harder You Work, the Happier You Will Be: A Meta-Analysis of the Relationship Between Achievement Motivation and Subjective Well-Being with Chinese Sample

Abstract

Abstract: A meta-analysis was conducted to investigate the relationship between achievement motivation and subjective well-being. Through literature retrieval, 47 cases and 48 independent effect sizes together with 14,616 participants which met the inclusion criteria of meta-analysis were selected. The results showed that achievement motivation was significantly positively correlated with subjective well-being, the motivation of pursuing success was significantly positively correlated with subjective well-being, while the motivation of avoiding failure was significantly negatively correlated with subjective well-being. Besides, Literature sources significantly moderated the relationship between achievement motivation and subjective well-being. The results showed that achievement motivation was closely related to subjective well-being, and the literature sources might have moderate effect on the relationship.

Key words: achievement motivation, subjective well-being, meta-analysis, moderate effect

摘要： 本研究采用元分析的方法探讨了成就动机与主观幸福感的关系，纳入了符合标准的文献47篇，包含48个独立效应量和14616名被试。结果发现，成就动机与主观幸福感呈显著正相关，追求成功的动机与主观幸福感呈显著正相关，避免失败的动机与主观幸福感呈显著负相关。文献来源显著调节成就动机与主观幸福感的关系。以上结果说明，成就动机与主观幸福感关系密切，文献来源对二者的关系可能具有调节作用。
